Planning to make this tomorrow! You may have no understanding of the impact your channel makes but I’m a girl raised by her grandma who was an amazing cook, gardener, wine maker and artist, to say the least. The downside was she was done teaching kids how to cook and I never felt confident Troy try until 44 years old. You have changes mine and my family’s life… good is a way to gather, commune, help and share with others. Thank you for such a beautiful gift. 💜 Blessings to you and your family.

[@crankytang12]

She's done the same for me too! Her channel is simply amazing. This channel was truly my therapy when my grandmother died and I felt her soul as I cooked

[@dnai2337]

❤❤❤

[@pinkhoody]

Getting through this and many weeknight meals with her; totally agree! These videos are essential STAPLES for ordinary meals and holiday spreads alike.

[@danielkaiser8971]

There is something magical about this recipe for me. It makes me think of family coming to the dinner table and enjoying eating together, making memories that will turn to gold.

Yes! 👏🏼🙌🏼

[@bbgirl6741]

[@angiebby1122]

​@SimplyMamaCooks question, please!!!!! My husband hates onions, and I have tomato paste but not tomato chicken bullion, should I replace or add anything instead or just taste as I go? TIA

[@clairewyndham1971]

50 years ago I lived in a heavily hispanic part of Southwest Detroit. My neighbor across the hall from me was Puerto Rican and she took pity on me and taught me to make soffit. She spoke no English and I spoke no Spanish. But when it comes to doing things from the heart, you have no need for words. From sofrito came Aroz con poillo. With my first try, came peels of laughter as several other neighbors knew this was my first try and again, knowing very little English I had about 6 very good cooks tasting my meal. It was terrible! But, with all the hugs, laughter and them patting my hand..it got better. This dish means so much to me!

[@krissanchez4816]

I’ll never understand why you can never find this dish at a restaurant. My mom made this around once a week growing up. One of the best dishes ever.

[@tmstxgrl]

I swear I could smell that wonderful aroma while it was cooking!

[@Cate5013]

I love arroz con pollo!! Thanks for this--it made me hungry!

[@Cyesloks67]

I'm trying to learn how to cook and I will definitely give this a try, I love the way you teach very detailed.

[@belindadunne4312]

Yum, I like to add Chipotle sometimes for spice. This is indeed comfort food, a true favorite, as you said. 👍🏻😊

[@luciabriseno4065]

[@MLeighland]

Mama mia, this looks amazing. Your videos make my mouth water.

[@stacyd1019]

I love this dish, my grandma would put green olives in it when I was growing up, loved that salty bite that you would get!

[@Teri_Head]

I love the tomato chicken bouillon powder, it’s a game changer

[@ysidrarodriguez1985]

Thank you so much for your cooking channel, I know you said you were not chef but you could've fooled me!! Love all recipes. Plain and simple and delicious!

[@ambersamusements]

That looks delicious.

[@kathrynsinclare8459]

Omgosh, you make that look so easy, and I can taste it, sooo good.

[@whoopdedoo5271]

This recipe is wonderful! I’ve made it twice now and made a few modifications. Added some veggies and green Spanish olives, the second time. It was delicious. Thank you so much for sharing. I learn to be a better cook because of your easy to follow recipes and wonderful attitude. I improve each time I try one of your recipes. Mucho agradecimiento desde Australia 🇦🇺 😊

[@lettiegrant9447]

Who doesn't love chicken and rice? And this recipe is certainly one I'm going to try to make. And with the seasonings you used I know it's delicious. Thanks for another delicious meal.👍👍😊

[@Angelica_Hedgie]

This looks the best! So comforting and flavorful 😊

[@spacealien_xx]

I’m so glad you made this!! It reminds me of my childhood..thank you ❤

[@MsClevertoo]

This looks delicious 😋..I have never tried cooking this dish..I will now, your recipe looks simple and not too time consuming. I wish I could of smelled all that aroma..I know it was good. Thanks for sharing the recipe..

[@bbgirl6741]

When u cook this at home use those seasonings for it the kitchen smells so good n when ready ,so delicious.

[@P245Sig]

I love chicken and rice. Cheapest cuts of chicken you can find at the store, whatever seasoning/flavors you like, and barring absolute intentional malpractice it comes out good.

[@catebessencourt2137]

When I visited Mexico City , I learned to make arroz con pollo . It’s very simular to how you made it but just one difference . They added 2 cups of beer and 2 cups of chicken broth . 20 years later I’m still making it. I can’t wait to make your version 😋

[@fuzibunny]

😮looks so yummy!

[@tww15tube]

Looks absolutely delicious!! Thanks for sharing.

[@BeachPeach2010]

You can never go wrong with chicken 'n rice! 👍

[@twinpinsbakery2110]

I love that you showed ways to substitute the tomato paste for tomato sauce in a rice recipe. I've never successfully done this because I never considered the tomato chicken bullion. That's what I've been missing! You make your recipes with whatever you have on hand and it's so genuine and authentic to being a real mom cooking dinner for your family. Arroz con pollo is a classic comfort food!

[@carolbaughan8768]

Oh, Mama is in the kitchen❤❤❤❤ it's beautiful!!! It does look perfect!!!😋

[@denisemakarius3963]

[@ryandavis4457]

[@sageparsely2365]

I saw this yesterday and decided to make it. Last night I had a dream I was making it, but couldn't find all the seasonings. LOL

[@crystalsaragoza]

[@willhoward9865]

[@Shz.Clipss]

Always gotta do bone in, way more flavour from the bones.

[@cynthiar6426]

Hey that's a very delicious looking recipe I must give it a try it's not a bunch of ingredients either hey thank you ❤😅😍🖐

[@bbgirl6741]

It’s not complicated at all I had all ingredients on hand well except tomato paste I don’t buy it. Tomato Bouillon I do so it worked out tasted delicious. I followed her steps n cooking time wowza was a big hit. Try it you’ll love it.

[@HeronCoyote1234]

My late mil was an excellent cook, and often made arroz con pollo (along with chicken fricassee and pernil). Her son, also an excellent cook, makes this dish about once a month (I’m a mediocre cook, but he loves my pernil!). One of our favorite meals.

[@bbgirl6741]

What is Pernil if u don’t mind answering 🤔

[@shermanhofacker4428]

I prefer the toasted rice without much seasoning, just a little onion, garlic and saffron. Served with peas and chicken cooked separately. It was one of the first dishes I learned to cook in Spain.

[@rhondaroberts7275]

Looks delish! I took some thighs out that I was going to grill for dinner. Now I will make this! 😊

[@nancyfong3535]

Did the chicken thighs work well for this dish? I’m not a big wings person.

[@bbgirl6741]

Mmmm with thighs gonna be even better hope it turns out amazing for you.

[@ivetaleksandi9247]

Great video. Very clear and easy to understand

[@runs3492]

[@bethdavis6863]

I would serve with a salad and a crusty bread.

[@RM-mu3tl]

@@bethdavis6863 Thanks!

[@bbgirl6741]

Fresh pot of pinto beans and mashed potatoes goes great We grew up eating with those two sides Homemade flour tortillas or Corn tortillas either or.

[@bbgirl6741]

Chips n salsa Guacamole , Chili con queso , fried buttered corn , refried beans Ranch style beans. Cause all the seasoning are Mexican style,

[@bettyaranzazu9480]

Yummy ❤ you make me so hungry

Btw made with fresh frijoles and mashed potatoes goes great with it 😂😂😂🤣👍🏼

[@lakeshacanseco2929]

How many tomatoes should I use in place of the tomato paste and will I still need to add tomato chicken bullion if I'm using fresh tomatoes

[@JamesDavis-jw6nj]

You're welcome!😀✌🏽

[@justcookwithsha]

Omg…look so good and delicious 😋 yummy ❤

[@tazzyb1785]

This is so relevant for me right now because I just had what I thought was Arroz Con Pollo only to find out that it's been "Southernized" here because it was full of cheese... BUT I LIKED IT😢😢😢 But now want to try the REAL version so thank you ❤ Love all your videos!

[@bbgirl6741]

This is Mexican style chicken n rice the seasonings anyway. No cheese goes in Arroz con pollo That was chicken n rice Americanized 😂 Goes with different sides if has cream of soups in it. Both yummy tho.

[@lauradavis4848]

​@bbgirl6741 I've had chicken n rice my whole life an never saw anyone use cheese in it. Interesting

[@deborahlowry6221]

Can't wait to make that
